He is now facing a ton of shit in DC because being charged violated his probation.
He will now have to reappear in court on an assault charge that would have been dismissed otherwise.
If he is innocent I would sue the shit out of the accuser, the district attorney in Durham and anyone else I could for hardship caused by the false charges.
The accuser in this case is the people of the state of North Carolina. Unless / until this woman files a civil suit, she is not the accuser.
Suing the DA's office for malicious prosecution is virtually impossible.
This sucks for them if they are innocent.
as far as the kid violating probation, he's a schmuck. Probation has ridiculously simple rules. Don't get arrested is always one of them.
